I immigrated to the United States as a late teen, and I’ve always struggled with my accent. It has adversely affected both my professional and personal life. For a while, I thought speaking with an accent is just going to be a part of my life and there was not much I could do about it. This changed after I met Alida Engel, CCC-SLP, BCS-SCF*. Her lessons really work! I am already noticing a big difference only two months into our program. More importantly, Alida Engel, CCC-SLP, BCS-SCF* makes me feel that she really cares about me and she is on my side. During the week when we are not meeting, Alida Engel, CCC-SLP, BCS-SCF* takes time to listen to my voice recordings and gives me feedback/encouragement. She makes me feel that I am not doing this by myself because she gives me courage and motivation to confront the negative feelings that came from speaking with an accent. I feel empowered, and I believe I can drastically improve my speech. For anyone who is not a native English speaker, I encourage you to meet Alida Engel, CCC-SLP, BCS-SCF*. It will change your life.
